Joan Taylor is an actress.
Joan Taylor (August 18, 1929 – March 4, 2012) was an American television and film actress.
Taylor was born Rose Marie Emma in Geneva, Illinois. Her father Joseph Emma was from Sicily and became a movie manager and a Hollywood prop man. Her mother Amelia Berky was from Austria and became a vaudeville dancer/singer.
Taylor married Leonard Freeman in 1953 and they had three daughters. After her contract for The Rifleman ran out, she retired from acting to raise her children. When Freeman died in January 1974 following heart surgery, Taylor started managing Leonard Freeman Productions and the business of Hawaii Five-O under the name Rose Freeman. She went to at least one Five-O convention to talk to fans.
With her children older, she found herself writing, including co-author credit for the comedy Fools Rush In (1997 film) starring Matthew Perry and Salma Hayek.
Taylor married TV producer-director Walter Grauman in 1976, although the couple subsequently divorced.
